Project: ‘Unsere Heimat Children Of War Then and Now’
Description: Each person, a volunteer for their portrait, was asked to identify a childhood memory that has influenced and/or shaped their lives. These written answers are included as part of the installation ‘Unsere Heimat Children Of War Then and Now’.
This portfolio: ‘Unsere Heimat Children Of War Then and Now’ are people portraits. They are colourful character-filled portraits of a diverse spectrum of 70+ year old seniors who have as children survived the terrors of the second world war. All are united as individuals who self identify as children of war.
Artist: lorraine parow
Artist Statement: With these portraits I seek to unveil the spirit of our human instinct to create connections. Connections that not only eradicate perceived differences but also collectively unite us differently.
